“The honest work of education was helping students see that most of education isn’t honest work. And then helping them to thrive regardless.” ~ Sean Michael Morris seanmichaelmorris.com/my-sel…

It’s been almost two years since I’ve written something entirely new about ungrading. Really glad to have this out in the world. It’s a simple piece but it gets to some incredibly practical aspects of this work that I haven’t written about before. jessestommel.com/the-practic…

I’m proud to be serving on the Advisory Board for the #RealCollege Curriculum, a powerful new project in #highered from @BelieveStudents. Please join us on October 28 to learn more about it! tinyurl.com/ypjvej8z

Professors- what activities/ books etc do you keep on hand in case kids (toddler/ preschool age) visit your class with their parents? I’ve got a couple animal books and bubble wrap to pop plus white board markers, but seeking other ideas! Thank you! #RealCollege

Is grading doing us or our students any favors? Or do grades short circuit the rich, messy human interactions that are so important to meaningful learning? Check out our latest episode of Higher Listenings with @Jessifer to hear why breaking our addiction to grades may be easier than you think. Listen now: linktr.ee/higherlistenings

$35,000.00 @Roll4Initiagive has now raised 35k to save lives in Palestine, Lebanon, Congo, Yemen, Chad, Ukrain & beyond. I’m proud of us. What we did. Please, give us a follow. With this landmark, I can officially say this: Stay tuned.

I always wonder how other #highered experts approach their own kid’s #college process… So I wrote a little about ours.

Misinformation and disinformation aren’t “critique.”

It’s National Voter Registration Day.  We are voting for Harris-Walz. The choice is clear. Check your voting status here: iwillvote.com

After tonight’s debate there should be no doubt – no room for discussion – @KamalaHarris is the only candidate in this race who is ready to be President. I am once again urging everyone to roll up their sleeves and DO SOMETHING – phone bank, knock on doors, talk to any and everyone you know and urge them to vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Every vote will matter in what will be a close race. We cannot afford to have anyone sitting on the sidelines. There’s simply too much at stake. Get involved today at go.KamalaHarris.com.
